Fix urcu-bp: don't move registry
It is not correct to move the registry address range, since there are
external references from reader threads. This will trigger on workloads
with many threads.
Typically, on Linux, mremap can expand the existing range, which is OK.
However, if there is not enough space around the existing range, it may
try to map it at a different address, which is incorrect.
It is more likely that this bug will be observed on operating systems
where urcu uses the mmap/munmap fallback instead of mremap.
Moreover, prior to commit:
"Fix: urcu-bp: Bulletproof RCU arena resize bug"
this issue was hidden by the fact that each thread ended up with their
own memory mapping (leaked), on Linux at least.
